Hi
I have just bought two new Pylontech US2000 but just want to make sure connect the correct CAN-bus BMS cable. After what understand from
https://www.victronenergy.com/live/battery_compatibility:pylontech_phantom
It should be " VE.Can to CAN-bus BMS type B Cable, part number ASS030720018"
Is this correct?
Best Regards
Mikael
As it's written in the link.
Typ B for US2000/US3000/UP2500 and Typ A for US2000C/US3000C/UP5000/Force-L.

It's articles like this that makes me wonder how to know what models they actually are.
I'm going to try this question here, as it is related but, for a Batrium BMS versus Plyontech.
Batrium says Victron will communicate with Cerbo GX. They link to a cable to use on Victron's site but, at that link is a type A and B, and nowhere does Batrium or Victron say which is the correct cable to use. I've looked for clues within Batrium's page, (https://support.batrium.com/article/110-how-to-control-victron-gx-with-watchmon) to no avail but, I've VERY limited knowledge of this stuff.... Really hoping to find someone who's actually made this connection and can do some hand holding! Currently have a Watchmon 7 but, that may be about to change to the Watchmon Core.
